I'm Russian. Today I started working on a mod for my Sims to play over the network on computers. When I decided to check the languages, I found that in all languages the names and descriptions are in Russian. Suddenly you need to check the work of the mod in another language or translate it. What do i do? The game is in Russian.

Whatever you write in the object, or when using the "Copy string tables to all languages", it copies the original text you made to the other languages. The game and program is not capable of auto-translating. The best option, if you are releasing this and since you know some English, is to default the language to English. Start by exporting your Russian string table (as a backup), then edit the English string table and write everything in English, then go to Tools > Modding > then choose Copy string tables to to all languages. When it's done, delete the new Russian string table and re-import the backup you made. Now everyone using the mod, except those who play in Russian, will have the English text. And eventually translators can do the other languages if they feel inclined.
